CCHP is the primary managed-care provider for Medi-Cal beneficiaries in Contra Costa that also manages smaller plans for county employees and In-Home Support Services (IHSS) homecare workers.
CCHP is accredited by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA), an independent body that conducts rigorous assessments of health plans' structures and processes, clinical quality and patient satisfaction. CCHP is only one of six Medicaid managed-care plans in California to receive a four-star rating from NCQA.
CCHP's strategy is centered around three priorities:
